The ss Heraid,s - Letter from

The s HeraId,s - Letter from
sacramento.
SACRAMENTO. February 9th.
To-day is the twenty.seventh day of
the session, and the question may be
ask ed, .'What has been done during the
timer" The only answer that can be
given is nothng-virtually nothing! 1t
is true attempts have been made to do
something. but the eloquence stored up
in some of these legislative "wind-bags"
must find vent; and God help those who
are obliged to stay and listen to it.
In the Assembly to day your cores
pondent was unhappy enough to be
present at one of these outbursts of elo-
auence. The subject was on Meow.
an IS bill referring to newspapers.
Briefly of Los Angeles took an active
part in the debate, and from the tenor
Of his argument the papers of Los An.
geles must have been hauling him over
tho Goals before the election. He re-
ferred to the press of Los Angeles as a
lot of pirates. whose only avocation, as
he would make it appear, is to
throttle any Republican on the
eve Of an election. His harangue
did not seem to have any effect, how.
ever, for the bill was defeated, and to-
day strong fight was made for recon.
sideration tf the bill. but the attempt
to refer was defeated. Knox, of Los
Angeles, advocated the reference of the
bill, and claimed that if it could be
passed it would be great protection to
the press of the State. MCGOWAN, who
is the author of the bill, comes from
Humboldt and is very anxious that
something should be done to protect the
men who have political aspirations. He
did not want paper to attack a man
Just on the eve of an election, and by so
doing prevent his election. All was to
no avail, for the members of the As.
sembly who know the duty of public
journals protested against any measure
whatever that would have a tendency te
curtail tho liberty of the press.
The Irrigation Committee, after lone
s ege of night work, has finally arrived
at plan by which the irrigation prob
lem may b. put into operation. Sena.
tor White has left no stone unturned t.
arrive at the best method to put THU
knotty question at rest. Senator Alb
bolts bill has been reported back te
the Senate, with the recommendation
that it do pass as amended. This bill
will give entire satisfaction to the peopl,
of the southern part of the State. who
are interested in this great question
Senator White, who has spent grea
deal of labor in bringing it as near az
possible to suit all parties, is of the opin
ion that the bill as amended will give
the people great relief in this direc
tion.
Lieutehant-G Governor Waterman has
returned from San Francisco. where he
went to recuperate after the attack made
upon him by the Stockton paper. He
told your correspondent that he never
had such time in his life as he did in
San Francisco during the snow storm.
He said while in the act of getting into
car some Of his admirers were so glad
to see him that they made an onslaught
ON him with snow-balls. but he took it
in good part and did not fall back on his
official position for protection, but stood
Il like plain, ordinary man.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1887-02-11

Our neighbor, the Tribune, has a
very good article opposing the repeal
Of the tax on whisky and tobacco.
The high protective tariff men are at
the bottom of this movement to ease
off the glut of receipts in the Treas
ury so that there may hereafter be
NO excuse for scaling down the tariff.
Our contemporary says:
Manifestly, the surplus in the Ma
tional Treasury is too large, and it
ought to be reduced; but by all
means let the reduction fall where it
will do the greatest good to the great
est number-let it be made by ex-
empting those articles from the oper-
stion of our tariff laws that are used
every day in the year by the majority
of our people. Let the free list be
enlarged; let the duty be removed
from lumber, salt, sugar and other
neces -ary articles that can be pro-
duced at profit despite foreign COM
petition, but let not Congress hold
out any inducement to increase the
nse Of such articles as whisky by
making them cheaper than they are
already by the removal of the inter-
nal revenue.
These are pretty near our senti-
ments; and their practical enforce
nnent would lead to the consum nation
of that grand Democratic maxim-"a
tariff for revenue only" We vel
come our neighbor into the charmed
circle which includes the fairness and
the brains Of the country, whether
they belong to the Democratic or Re-
publican side Of the political house.

MAJOR BEN. TRUMAN, who is always
using his graceful pen for the beneit
Of California, has contributed a very
interesting article to the New York
Times on the subject OF vine culture
and wine production in California. In
this article he has grouped together a
mass of valuable statistics showing
the progress OF this great industry,
and giving the reader at a glance its
present proportions. He says that in
1886 the number of acres planted to
vines in California was 49, ,730, two
thirds OF which have been put out
since 1880. This would give us "a, ,4s0,-
600 vines in bearing, or nearly SO. OF
the 1l9, 730 acres 81 ,043 are planted in
wine grapes, 1880 in table grapes
and 9.4SS in raisin grapes. The vine
interest alone represents a capital OF
$6S, 900, 900, and gives employment
directly to 90, 900 men. The Stanford
vineyard in Tehama county, contains
8 1925 acres-the largest vineyard in
the world. The next is the Nadeau
vineyard, in this county, which con-
tains little over 1000 acres. This
fine exhibit of the extent OF our vine
yard interest will give the reader an
idea of the rapid progress the industry
has made within very few years, for
prior to 1880, the production of wine
was in its infancy, and the yield that
yearwas only little over 1000, 900 gal
Ions, whilst in 1886 it reached 19,000,-
600. But large as this production ap-
pears to as, it is mere bagatelle when
we compare IL with the wine industry
of France. The area devoted to the
vine in that country is s, ,146, 7s3 acres,
and before the phylloxera 80 de-
vastated its vineyards, the annual
production of wine was little less
than one billion gallons. We may
see from this comparison the great
strides we have to make before COM
ing anywhere near France in wine pro-
duction. The falling off since 1884,
on account OF the phylioxera, has
been about SOC, 900 900 gallons yearly,
and California has the opportunity,
rarely offered in the history OF the
staple productions of a country, to
build up this new industry by max
ing up to the commerce of the world
the loss sustained by France. Our
capacity in land to produce wine
grapes is so far ahead OF that OF
France that we should be able within
the next decade to bring our wine
production up to point that will
make up for the decrease on account
OF the pest in France. But in order
to do this our wines must have fair
play. They must be protected from
the injurious practices of the sophis-
ticators, both in this State and the
East, and be permitted to reach the
consumer in their purity. Unless
this is accomplished the wines OF our
State will loose their identity in the
the markets OF the world, and al
though they will be drank with de-
light from Paris to Ispahan, yet they
will not be known as California pro-
ductions. The pure wine bill before
the Legislature at present would do
something towards the protection OF
our juices from the adulteration now
carried on here with impunity, and
the measure now before Congress, if
passed, would extend that protec-
ton, so that our infant industry would
have the chance of expansion it is
entitled to.
